• Large Capacity: Provides warmth for approximately 600 young birds from Day 1 until fully feathered, and for older birds during cold periods.
• Infrared Incandescent Heat: Delivers direct, radiant heat to birds and litter efficiently – ideal for young poultry and effective for all ages when needed.
• LP Gas Powered (Power Outage Solution): Operates independently of electricity, making it an excellent heating source during power outages or load shedding.
• Economical Gas Consumption: Uses approximately 130 grams of LP gas per hour.
• Adjustable Hanging Height: Typically hung ~1.2m from ground; adjust based on bird behaviour to regulate heat for different ages and conditions.
• Requires Low Pressure Regulator: Must be used with a Poltek Low Pressure Gas Regulator (sold separately) for safe operation.
• Safety Valve with Automatic Gas Shut-Off: Includes a safety valve that automatically shuts off the gas supply if the flame is extinguished, preventing gas leaks even if the gas is still switched on.

Consistent warmth is vital for poultry from Day 1 until they are fully feathered, and remains important for older birds during cold spells. The Poltek Gas Brooder for 600 birds offers a reliable LP Gas-powered solution. It employs infrared incandescent technology, directly warming the birds and their litter, promoting comfort and healthy development. A key advantage is its LP Gas operation, making it a dependable heat source even during electricity outages or load shedding, which can be critical in many African farming contexts.

Consuming around 130g of gas per hour, it’s an economical choice. Hang initially at 1.2m and adjust based on bird behaviour: lower if they huddle, raise if they move away. This unit requires a Poltek Low Pressure Gas Regulator (sold separately) for safe connection. The built-in safety valve provides peace of mind by automatically shutting off gas flow if the flame goes out, ensuring safe operation.
